Device typeOphthalmic irrigation/infusion/aspiration cannula, non-illuminating, reusable: A rigid or semi-rigid tube (non-illuminating) designed to be inserted into the eye to facilitate infusion, irrigation, and/or aspiration of fluids/gases during ophthalmic surgery (e.g., phacoemulsification, vitreoretinal surgery, sub-Tenon’s anaesthesia, capsule polishing). It is a single- or multi-lumen device, typically made of high-grade stainless steel, and may include a length of flexible tubing. It may be blunt, or include a sharp angled tip/hook (e.g., irrigating cystotome for capsulotomy), however it does not have a sharp bevelled end for initial puncture of the eye (i.e., not a needle). This is a reusable device intended to be sterilized prior to use.
